Vertical Worship Creative Arts Ministries

Welcome to Vertical Worship Creative Arts Ministries

What is Vertical Worship?
Vertical Worship is a posture.
Vertical Worship is a lifestyle.
Vertical Worship is focusing our
eyes on Christ and Him alone

As God's Creative Artists, we are called out to create the atmosphere of worship in which the Lord can move on the hearts of men. Unfortunately, many of of us are just as distracted as the ones we were commissioned to lead into worship!

"Before we can effectively minister to the world HORIZONTALLY,
we must 1st align ourselves with the Lord VERTICALLY"

OUR SCRIPTURE:
"If then you be raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God" Colossians 3:1-3

Vertically Speaking....

Min. Angela D. Brown

   Jehovah Shamah - The Lord is There
Our God is an awesome God! He who is infinite loves us so much that He breakdowns His character in such way that our finite minds can comprehend who He really is. We sing a lot about Him being our Jehovah Jireh and rightfully so, for He is an excellent Provider. We praise Him often for being Jehovah Rapha because He is our constant Healer - both inside and out. But one of His characteristics which has become more real to me lately is Jehovah Shamah - the Lord is There. He is always there, whether we feel Him or not, whether we walked away from Him in temporary insanity, whether we are too sick to praise Him or whether we have fallen into the depths of depression - The Lord is There. He is a very present help in the time of trouble. He promises never to leave us nor forsake us. He is there in the midnight hour when no one else is around. He is there when you are facing life’s most difficult challenges. He is there when you are at your loneliest point and He is there when you are at your greatest triumph.   Even when you can't sense His presence or think that He isn't listening to your prayers.
He is There.

This is indeed a faith walk. In order to please our God, we must walk by faith and not by sight. Therefore, we cannot afford to get so caught up in our own emotions that we neglect His presence. God forbid!   The Lord has proven Himself to be God in our lives so many times that we cannot keep count. So just because He decides to remains quite or doesn’t move quickly doesn't mean that He isn’t concern about us, love us or that He isn't there. On the contrary, it's in those most difficult seasons of our lives that He is closer than the air that we breathe.

So love on Him today. Let Him know that you are there too. Let Him know that no matter what you are going through, nothing shall separate you from His love. He is all we have. Without Him we are utterly hopeless. But with Him, we are more than conquerors. Just knowing that He is There - we can face tomorrow!
                                              I Love You Jesus!

Scripture Memory...

Psalm 16:11 "You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness
of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore."

Quote for the Month...

I LOVE YOUR PRESENCE
In the glory of your presence
I find rest for my soul
In the depths of your love
I find peace makes me whole

I love, I love, I love your presence
I love, I love, I love your presence
I love, I love, I love you Jesus
I love, I love, I love your presence

Vertical Worship can be expressed in different ways by different people. It's up to you what methods you use to maintain your relationship with God. But the scriptures are very clear about this one thing. "Draw near to God and He will draw near to you." James 4:8. The bottom-line is that you are as close to God as you choose to be.
